Elvira Azul Cor was born on the cursed day of a lunar eclipse where the shadows of fear, breakdown of people, and their prayers of rage to overcome tragedies have channeled into the only born heart of that omniscient day. A heart made of blue.
The deadliest monsters keep growing inside her, unknown to her own self, and her mother had to defy the Sectee Occult to save her as a newborn. On the run for years, away from mystical soldiers, and eyes of predators. Little does she knew that one day the craziest tracker of the realm: Faith, will come to get her, who is not awakened of the power she beholds.
The royal command of Aspein Empire is on the mission of wiping out every mage breathing the purity of their air. Whilst the soldiers of the kingdom keep an eye always open for the newest witch they could burn; and a handsome Sir Astaroth Zagreus is on a hunt to save his brother's empire from a vicious fallacy only he has the whiff of.
Being cornered by both the magical and human realms, Elvira is forced to fight a battle of wits to survive this bloody bath. And there is only one place in the kingdom where she can secure her safety far better than anywhere else; Bells Hut, where rumors are just another word of mouth, nothing believable until proved, and the immortal weapon a woman can have: being a Temptress.
And now to outwit Faith, Elvira seduces a devil in disguise of a man: not knowing he is a Veliong.

In the glittering heart of the Virellan Empire, politics is bloodsport and power is seduction. Princess Liora Valen, heir to the throne and secretly the Empire's most lethal assassin, walks a knife's edge between duty and desire. Trained from childhood to eliminate threats to the crown, she has become a whisper in the dark-feared, revered, and utterly alone.

The Love Elixir
A witch cursed with obedience stumbles on a tempting opportunity: create an (illegal-ish) love potion for the university it-girl, for a hefty sum. The payment would help her enlist the infamous underground guild to help her break her curse. All in all, a good deal. The problem? The love elixir's target is the university golden boy that said witch has a major crush on. Nothing unfolds as planned, and chaos ensues. ♡ Amira has the short end of the stick. Cursed with obedience and lacking in magical ability, she's an overall outcast at Aeseros University for the Magical Arts and Sciences. The only thing keeping her (and her GPA) afloat is her genius-level potions ability. So she makes the best of the situation by running a secret potion-making business. If she saves enough, she can finally hire the underground guild to help break her curse. But when the popular Calypso De Costa offers to pay an irresistible amount for a love potion, Mira is conflicted. Partly because it's kinda illegal, and mostly because Calypso wants to target Arden Lancaster, the gorgeous, charismatic, studious student council president. And Mira's crush. It would be a hard choice to make - if Mira had any. Things turn from bad to worse when Arden's best friends are also thrown into the mix: sweet sunshine Leonidas, self-absorbed playboy Elijah, and the chronically sleepy Kai. And Mira underestimates Calypso's hunger for revenge. Let's just say: Maybe being cursed isn't so bad.

Transmigration: I became my favorite character, the villainess.
Priest Alexander, how good is your printing? Princess Vivian said seductively with only a piece of white clothing that covered little to none of her sinful body. Alexander was shocked by the sight in front of him, looking at the woman who was one of the most beautiful, No! She's the most beautiful woman in the Empire, but because she never made an attempt to dress up so nobody has ever seen her shine this brightly. Now looking at her with water dripping from her body like the sea pearl, her flamboyant red hair like that of burning fire, and her perfectly seductive body still wet and still carrying the freshness of a rose petals shower. Looking at the way she is wet from head to toe with the room filled with the scent of rose with water dripping from her body, gives a kind of allure that makes it hard for any man to resist her. She's currently looking like a seductress, No!, She's a seductress because she's currently doing what is seductress does, seducing a priest. Vivian had an heart disease since the day she was born, since she was young, she spent most of her life lying on the hospital bed, denying her the joy of living like every other normal child. The only way for her to escape the reality that haunts her and the pain she goes through is by reading novels, watching movies, and following celebrity gossip on social media, but what becomes of Vivian when she suddenly dies from over-excitement and is transmigrated into a novel as her favorite character who was the villainess, and probably the most naïve and innocent villainess ever.

The hidden heir:Beyond the crown
In the high-tech, magic-touched kingdom of **Aurelia**, every royal is born into the spotlight - except one. **Princess Elara Vale**, the youngest child of the royal family, was hidden from the world after a prophecy declared she would "awaken what was lost." To keep her safe, her parents erased her existence from public records. She grew up surrounded by love from her siblings but always behind walls, longing to see the world for herself. When her secret is accidentally leaked, Elara runs away - not in rebellion, but in search of freedom, identity, and purpose. In the neon city of **Ravenport**, she meets **Kael Arden**, a quiet mechanic with no memory of his childhood and a strange amulet that glows in her presence. As they form a bond, they're joined by a group of unexpected friends - a hacker, a healer, and a street magician - each searching for their own truth. Together, they discover that Kael is the lost prince of the long-vanished Shadow Realm, kidnapped at birth, and that the prophecy ties both of them to the future of their worlds. Through their journey, Elara learns what it means to live beyond a title. Kael learns what it means to belong. And their friends - ordinary people with extraordinary hearts - become the family they choose. It's a story about **finding friendship, courage, and self-worth** in a world that often defines you by what you were born to be - not who you choose to become.
Heirs To the Flame
Ten years ago, the Phoenix chose its heir. Then it watched her family burn. Emberin has spent a decade hiding in Korr's slums, protecting her younger brother and the orphans who follow her. The world believes the Aetheris bloodline died in flames .... until divine fire erupts across three empires, calling to twelve surviving heirs. Her siblings think themselves the only survivors. They've spent ten years building power, nursing grudges, and preparing for a throne that can only seat one. But someone orchestrated their family's massacre, and that traitor is still pulling strings. Now Emberin must choose: remain a ghost and watch her makeshift family die, or step into the light and discover which of her blood siblings wants her dead. Because in House Aetheris, the most dangerous enemies wear familiar faces. *This is a temporary cover*
Threads of Fate
The path fate lays before us is often many years in the making, and the tale of the Phoenix and the God-spawn is no different. Nearly 3,000 years before the war that would bring about Astaroth's defeat, another battle was waged to ensure there would be a future to fight for. Duty has been thrust upon Prince Azael Cadhael for centuries, first by filling the role of an uncrowned King, but his true story begins as all royal stories do: with a ball, a secret, and a peculiar dream. When Azael overhears the whispered plans of his betrothed and her twin brother to leave with the Phoenix on a goddess-given quest, he must surrender to a new type of duty entirely. Navigating his ever increasingly strained relationship with Tissaia Lochren while striving to save the future of his kingdom isn't a job easily done, and her closeness with the Phoenix, Kaius, certainly doesn't make it any easier. Tissaia has spent years in the shadows of her own failure and her father's wrath. Kaius's quest offers her and her brother Talarion a chance to claim their freedom at long last, but fighting ones' past can be just as deadly as fighting an armed foe, especially if that past isn't keen on backing down. If they're going to succeed, all four of them must learn to recognize the power in truth and bared secrets, as well as the strength in kinship. If they fail, it could mean the doom of all Asterria for an age. But if they succeed, perhaps fate will be kinder than they have been led to believe.

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.
